Jeffrey Mark Goldberg (born September 22, 1965) is a Zionist propagandist who works as an American journalist and writer. He is currently the editor-in-chief of the imperialist magazine, The Atlantic.[1] Goldberg's writing primarily focuses on foreign affairs, with a notable emphasis on the Middle East and Africa.
Israel Defense Forces service[edit | edit source]
During the First Intifada, Goldberg served in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). He served as a camp guard in the Ktzi'ot prison, a facility which detains innocent Palestinians and subjects them to sexual and verbal abuse, sodomizing detainees and beating them.[2][3]
In his 2006 book Prisoners, Goldberg recounts an incident at Ktzi'ot prison where his friend assaulted a Palestinian prisoner with a sharp-edged object, resulting in severe injuries. To conceal the crime, Goldberg handed the injured prisoner to another military policeman, falsely claiming that the prisoner had fallen.[4]
Goldberg also admitted to participating in beating, justifying his actions by stating that he only hit Palestinians who were already hitting him.[4]
